Disney's Pop Century Resort

Overview

Disney's Pop Century Resort is the newest of the Disney Value Resorts and is located on a vast 177 acre site between Disney's Wide World of Sports and Epcot. It is being developed in two phases and the first phase opened in 2003 with 2880 rooms; the second phase will be just as big and will be connected by the Generation Gap bridge which straddles the Hourglass Lake.

Like all of the All-Star Resorts, the Pop Century Resort is littered with larger than life icons, this time representing 20th century pop culture from the 1950s to the 1990s (the second phase will cover the first half of the 20th century).

The 5 pairs of motel style four storey blocks span each decade from the 50s (jukeboxes, bowling pins and Lady and the Tramp) through the 60s (Play-Doh, Duncan Yo-Yo and Jungle Book), 70s (eight-track tape and Big Wheel bike), 80s (Sony Walkman, Rubiks Cube and Roger Rabbit) and 90s (laptop computer and cellphone).

Rooms/Suites

The rooms are small and fairly basic; there is no closet, just a clothes rail and a shelf in the bathroom, table and chair and a television.

Standard rooms are around 260 square feet and will sleep 4 (plus a baby in a crib). Most rooms come with either a king-size bed or two double beds.

There are two types of standard room; Standard Location and Preferred Location. With Preferred Location you are closer to the pool and guest facilities and hence have less distance to walk.

Rates for 2008
